Hi, my Dad (Dee Norton) used to belong to this club in the 70's.  He also
raced his 1954 100-4 in SCCA/ICSCC during the late 60's and 70's.

He recently passed away due to a heart attack.  He went quickly and
painlessly.

My brother and I have inherited his 1953 100-4 that he used to drive daily
until he decided to change some wiring.  He then was going to restore it 100%.
Well that never happened.  The car has been in his heated garage for about 25
years or so.  He also has 4+ blocks/cranks, unknown number of heads, sets of
carburetors, complete bolt on body work from his former race car.  We believe
there are at least 5 transmissions and tons of other stuff.  He collected this
stuff over a 40 year period.  My Dad was a pack rat and never threw anything
away.  I seem to have inherited this talent also.

So we are left with a complete car that needs mechanical restoration.  It is
all there but has not run in a very long time.  This is not a barn find, as it
is in way better condition then that.  The body is in good condition, although
a through close inspection may reveal some rust.  My Dad removed the
transmission, and unbolted the rear axle.  We are going to locate the original
hardware and bolt the axle back in place so it will roll.  We may re-install
the transmission and driveline also.

We are in the process of cataloging all the manuals, books, parts and taking
pictures.
We are looking to sell this as a complete package including all the Whitworth
tools as well.

We are not looking to get rich or more then what the package is worth.  But we
do not want to give it away either.  Most important to my Brother and myself
is that this goes to a Healey enthusiast.

So if any of you folks can help establish a value for this we would appreciate
it.
Once that is established if any of you have an interest we would be more then
happy to set up an appointment to view the Healey and it"s collection of parts
and tools.

We would love to restore and drive the Healey but we do not have the time or
funds to make this happen.  We want it to go to someone local who does.

Thank you,
Scott & Cam Norton
